BONA FIDE BLOGGER WITH VERIFIABLE TRUE STORY

July 29, 2024 by David Gillaspie

The idea of a bona fide blogger doesn’t come from O Brother Where Art Thou. They say bona fide, just not blogger. Lately I’ve been working with the words verify and verifiable in terms of truth and bona fide fits right in. So does the word trust. You know the word trust?

READ INSTRUCTIONS, VERIFIABLE INSTRUCTIONS

July 28, 2024 by David Gillaspie

We all read instructions before starting things. Or should. But . . . ? You already know what to do? They don’t make sense? No one is telling you what to do?

VERIFIABLE TRUTH MATTERS BECAUSE . . . ?

July 27, 2024 by David Gillaspie

Verifiable truth came up the other day when I showed this picture. “It’s a halo.” “Yes it is.” “A miracle.” “Uh huh.” Or the reflection in a car window as I passed by. You need to keep a sharp eye out for those halos when they pop up.

MAN CARD? DON’T PULL IT TOO OFTEN

July 26, 2024 by David Gillaspie

The man card is a fictional device for super men to explain themselves. They are manly men and they want you to know. They want you to know so they can then tell you they’re pulling your man card. Don’t let that happen. Nobody can pull it but the owner, not that there’s anything wrong […]

EMPATHY FEELINGS? LET ‘EM OUT

July 25, 2024 by David Gillaspie

The first time I wrote out ’empathy feelings’, spell check went to ’empty feelings.’ Empty feelings might be a better key word, just not the one I’m looking for. But I got an empty feeling scrolling through twitter, through yahoo news, and every other post was red hat related. Honest blogger that I am, it […]

SCREEN SPACE vs AIR TIME: BEING HELPFUL

July 24, 2024 by David Gillaspie

What are the goals of screen space and air time? Fill them up. That’s the primary goal. Secondary goals are making sense, being interesting, and ultimately trying to be helpful. I’m helpful. Which isn’t a way of asking, ‘Are you helpful?’

GOOGLE GAME NEEDS PRO HELP?

July 23, 2024 by David Gillaspie

Your google game tells who you are? A new rorschach test? The old test always looked like a broken spine and shattered hips, but okay. The new test results would be disappointing. Why?

NEEDED CHANGE BEGINS WITH . . . ? VOTING

July 22, 2024 by David Gillaspie

‘Needed change?’ Just repeating the words lends a sense of urgency. Something goes wrong? Something’s not right? Someone’s got a better idea? What about that ‘better idea?’

CAPITAL ONE TRUST WEAKNESS NEEDS EXERCISE

July 21, 2024 by David Gillaspie

How’s your Capital One trust? If it’s weak, you can fix it. But start small. You don’t tell new people all of your secrets at once and you don’t throw your important data at whoever asks for it. I agree with old Ernie here, you make people trust-worthy by trusting them. I’ll start with something […]

LOVE STORY WITH CLOSING DOORS AND WINDOWS

July 20, 2024 by David Gillaspie

The love story in The Last Rave is a warning. But a warning for who? From a gender perspective it’s a warning for women who want more from their guy. Turns out some guys have bigger problems than women who want them to want more with them.
